Objection Settlement Guidelines for Third Parties Acting in Good Faith Introduced

As background information, Law No. 31 of 1999 on the Eradication of Corruption, as amended by Law No. 20 of 2001 (collectively referred to as “Law 31/1999”), asserted that court decisions on confiscations of goods that do not belong to defendants (“Decisions”) during corruption-related cases should not be issued in the event that relevant third parties act in good faith (“Third Parties”) and have sustained losses (dirugikan).[1] If said Decisions also encompass the confiscation of goods belonging to Third Parties, then objections to said Decisions (“Objections”) may be submitted in letter form to the relevant courts within two days of said Decisions being handed down.[2]
